lipid oxidation has adverse effect on food deterioration and human health. the antioxidant activity of fennel seed extracts (fse) was evaluated by synthetic antioxidant. its oxidative stability was compared in olive oils in concentrations of bha (75 ppm), bht(75 ppm) and  1:1 bha to bht ratio. peroxide (pv), p-anisidine (av) and totox values were evaluated to assess the extent of oil deteriorat...

Well-defined times for minimum and maximum growth rates of rat hepatoma 3924A were found when cyclophosphamide doses were increased from 50 to 250 mg/kg. Minimum growth rates occurred 8 to 10 days after treatment and maximum growth rates occurred 13 to 16 days after treatment in 5 groups of 10 animals each that received 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 mg of cyclophosphamide per kg. Tumor growth dela...

The tensile creep of Al-5Cu-0.8Mg-0.15Zr-0.2Sc(-0.5Ag) was tested at 150–250 °C and 125–350 MPa, the effect Ag on high-temperature Al-Cu-Mg alloys discussed. After addition Ag, performances alloy were significantly improved 150 °C/300 MPa 200 °C/(150 175 MPa). Then, constitutive relational models during built, activation energy calculated to be 136.65 104.06 KJ/mol. Based thermal deformation me...

The effect of exogenous salicylic acid (SA) on the vase life of cut rose flowers was investigated. ‘Yellow Island’ roses were obtained from a commercial grower. The roses were pulse treated with SA (0, 50, 100, 150, 200 mg l) for 18 hours. Compared to the control treatment (DW), the greatest delay in senescence was obtained in cut roses treated with 150 mg l SA. With this treatment, flower vase...

BACKGROUND Asian sand dust (ASD) that originates in the Mongolian Desert in the spring induces serious respiratory health problems throughout East Asia (China, Korea, Japan). PM10 (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter <10 μm) is a major air pollutant component in ASD. We studied the effects of PM10 on allergy symptoms in patients with allergic rhinitis during the spring season, when ...

The effect of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) on megakaryopoiesis remains controversial. Treatment with rHuEpo in renal failure patients has been associated with a slight elevation of platelet counts. In animal studies, high doses of rHuEpo produced an increase of platelet counts followed by a gradual return to normal after 7 to 15 days or even a substantial degree of thrombocytopenia...

objectives: weight loss as a consecution of losing appetite in post-operative patients and those suffering from hiv, cancer, cachexia and inflammatory diseases are the main inducements of morbidity and mortality. there is an increasing demand for more efficacious and endurable appetite stimulating treatment for patients with cachexia. health economics is influenced by the malnutrition which was...

dirofilaria immitis is a filariid worm which typically lives as adult in the right ventricle of the heart and the pulmonary arteries of the dog, causing the canine heartworm disease.therapy of canine dirofilariosis due to dirofilaria immitis is indicated for dogs suffering from clinical signs of the disease (such as chronic cough). the present paper describes diagnostic and treatment features o...
